China has launched PUMCH-GENESIS, its first AI model specifically designed to diagnose rare diseases. This large language model, developed by Peking Union Medical College Hospital and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, can quickly analyze symptoms and suggest potential rare genetic disorders. 

The AI is tailored to Chinese genetic data, aiming to improve diagnostic accuracy and speed up confirmation for patients in China. It addresses diagnostic challenges stemming from the vast diversity of rare diseases and fragmented data. 

Currently undergoing public testing, the model offers preliminary consultations and appointment bookings, with plans to incorporate it into online clinics and the broader healthcare system.
